❤️ Kitten Mama Update ❤️

I’ve been a little quiet lately, and I wanted to let everyone know why.

The past couple of weeks have been incredibly busy. Between treating ringworm, cleaning and sanitizing crates, washing bedding, giving medications, caring for bottle babies, and keeping up with all of my personal pets, there simply haven’t been enough hours in the day.

My husband was helping me tremendously, but he recently had to leave for work out of town, so I’ve been managing everything on my own.

I also wanted to let everyone know that Ronin, Rowena, and Rosie have gone to the rescue owner. They had some of the more extensive ringworm cases, and this will allow them to receive additional treatment and attention while helping me focus on the kittens still in my care.

The good news is that everyone is being cared for, loved, and treated. ❤️

Thank you for your patience, support, messages, donations, and encouragement. Even when I don’t have time to reply to everyone, please know that I see your kindness and appreciate it more than you know.

I’ll do my best to start posting more updates soon. ❤️❤️❤️

🐾 A Little Update From The Kitten Mama 🐾

Sorry I haven’t posted much today.

Truthfully, I’m having a hard day.

Along with six kittens being treated for ringworm, Molly is developing an upper respiratory infection, Bond and Rowena are dealing with eye infections, Princess is having diarrhea consistent with coccidia, and now Rosie has started having diarrhea as well.

It feels like every time I get one thing under control, something else pops up.

The kittens are receiving treatment, being monitored closely, and getting lots of extra care, but rescue isn’t always the cute videos everyone sees online. Sometimes it’s medications, laundry, cleaning, disinfecting, worrying, and trying to stay one step ahead of whatever comes next.

Today is one of those days where I’m feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and discouraged.

But tomorrow we’ll get up and do it all again because these kittens are counting on me. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who follows their journey, shares posts, sends supplies, donates, or simply roots for these babies from afar. Your support truly helps keep us going. 🩷❤️

🚨 Rescue Supplies Running Low 🚨

I’m feeling pretty discouraged today. Donations have been almost nonexistent for the last few weeks, while expenses continue to grow.

Right now, I have 8 foster kittens in my care. Six of them have multiple ringworm lesions covering different areas of their bodies, making treatment and containment incredibly challenging and time-consuming.

Between medications, daily cleaning, laundry, disinfecting, food, litter, and supplies, the costs add up fast.

As of tomorrow, I’ll be out of wet kitten food. Formula is running low, and I also need litter, Rescue disinfectant, wipes, p*e pads, and ringworm treatment supplies.

These kittens didn’t ask to be sick, and they depend on me to help them heal.

If you’d like to help, my wishlist is linked in my bio. If donating isn’t possible, sharing this post would mean so much. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who continues to support these babies and follow their journey. I truly appreciate every share, donation, and word of encouragement. 🐾

Some days I feel like I’m drowning.

In bills. In laundry. In cleaning. In medications. In supplies I need but can’t afford.

But the kittens still need me, so I get up and keep going.

Maybe that’s what strength really looks like. ❤️

🐾 Future Adoption Announcement 🐾

📍 Birmingham, Alabama

Several of my foster kittens will be looking for their forever homes soon through Chilton County TNR Rescue. ❤️

Current Ages:
🐾 Bond – 12 weeks
🐾 Molly – 12 weeks
🐾 Rosie – 10 weeks
🐾 Ronin – 10 weeks
🐾 Rue – 10 weeks
🐾 Rowena – 10 weeks
(Formerly Rowan—we discovered she is actually a girl! ❤️)

The kittens are currently being treated for ringworm and will need to complete treatment and be spayed/neutered before they are ready for adoption.

If you are interested in adoption, please send me a private message. All adoptions must be approved through an application process.

Each adoption includes:
💊 Deworming
💉 3 FVRCP vaccines
🩺 Rabies vaccine
✂️ Spay/neuter surgery
🏠 Microchip

These babies have been loved, socialized, and cared for from the time they were tiny kittens. They are playful, affectionate, and full of personality, and I can’t wait to see them find families of their own.

While they aren’t quite ready yet, now is the perfect time to start following their journey and picking your favorite. I’ll continue posting updates as they finish treatment and get closer to adoption day.

Please share this post to help these sweet kittens find amazing forever homes.

🧼🦠 Ringworm has officially become my full-time cleaning job. 😅

Ringworm is a fungal infection that spreads through microscopic spores in the environment, which means cleaning and disinfecting are a huge part of stopping it from spreading.

Today my husband and I spent hours emptying the kitten room, disinfecting surfaces, washing bedding, setting up crates, and preparing for medicated baths. Ringworm isn’t something you can ignore—it’s a constant cycle of cleaning, laundry, and treatment.

🧴 REScue Cleaner is one of the products I rely on because it can kill ringworm spores in as little as 1–5 minutes. Unfortunately, I just used the last bottle I had while disinfecting the kitten room. 😬

❤️ Wishlist:

Please consider sharing this post. With 10 foster kittens in my care, supplies disappear quickly right now. Some of the things I’m going through every day include:

🧤 Gloves
🧻 Paper towels
🐾 P*e pads
🗑️ Trash bags
🧼 Clorox products
👕 Laundry detergent
🧴 REScue Cleaner
🐱 Wet kitten food

I’m also transitioning the kittens into crates to help prevent the spread of illness, so I still need:

🥣 Crate bowls
🧸 Toys
😺 Crate hammocks
🛏️ Blankets

🐾 Tonight these babies are getting medicated baths with a special antifungal shampoo as part of their ringworm treatment and moving into their new crates. Between the baths, daily cleaning, constant laundry, disinfecting, and extra supplies, it adds up quickly.

I’m doing everything I can to keep them comfortable, healthy, and on track for adoption. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who follows, shares, donates, and supports these kittens. Every share, donation, and kind word helps more than you know.
